Kildare to field unchanged side

Kildare boss Padraig Nolan has decided to keep faith with the same side that defeated Laois last weekend for today's National Football League Division 1B clash with Limerick in Newbridge.

Limerick boss Liam Kearns, who saw his side score their first win of the league campaign against Galway last weekend, is expected to stick with the same team that accounted for the Tribesmen.

Wexford boss Pat Roe has delayed naming his team to take on Down today due to injuries to seven players.

Philip Wallace, Paddy Colfer (back), Darragh Breen (shoulder), Darren Foran (thigh), Paraic Durtin (groin), and Jim D'Arcy (leg) are all receiving treatment, while Darren Browne is suffering from a long-term knee injury.

Laois boss Mick O'Dwyer has made four changes in personnel from the side that went down to Kildare last time out for today's clash against Galway.

Derek Conroy is preferred at corner-back to Paul McDonald, while Kieran Kelly returns in place of Darren Rooney at half-back.

Chris Bergin is chosen ahead of Mark Dunne in the half-forward line and Donal Brennan comes in for the suspended Stephen Kelly.

Kelly is facing a one-month ban after receiving a red card in last weekend's clash in Newbridge.

Galway boss Peter Forde is expected to ring the changes following last week's defeat to Limerick at the Gaelic Grounds.

Ulster champions Armagh travel south and west to take on Sligo, who will be looking for back-to-back league wins after ridding Wexford of their 100% record last weekend.

Ace attacker Oisin McConville is expected to retain his place in the Orchard line-up.
